WIRING
• Before installing the breaker, the
secondary disconnects must be wired
to the breaker.
• Wires with wire markers are provided
on the breaker. Make sure that the
switchgear wiring connection points
match up with the original wiring of the
cubicle. This ensures that all wiring
connections are properly made.

Wrong connections will cause the
breaker to malfunction.

scheme on the existing or old terminal
block and use the same references or
wiring information while re-wiring the
new terminal block.
